Mother of the Year

None other than the fabulous Gwen Stefani!!! Not only has she been in an amazing rock band, No Doubt, or made it on her own with numerous albums, but she has an amazing, adorable, little family and still manages to have spunk!! Gwen is the most epic mother out there, keepin her cool look, dressing fab on family outings, and always spending time with them. She is constantly seen down my street playing with Kingston and Zuma, (yes she is my neighbor and I'm obsessed). And yes if you were wondering, her husband is Gavin Rosedale, a major hottie! Did we mention she also has a killer line out called L.A.M.B!?! This momma has lived her life to the fullest and she is everything we hope to accomplish!!

Fashion's Night Out

We can both wholeheartedly agree September 10th 2010, Fashion's Night Out is a night that we will never forget. Us two and a few friends traveled all over Los Angeles viewing new collections, meeting celebrities (including: Perez Hilton, Taylor Jacobson, and Stephanie Pratt) and collecting goodie bags. The Beverly Center Mall held an epic fashion show with designs from Bloomingdales, Forever 21, Bebe, and Traffic (our new fave store). After that we quickly walked over to Robertson Blvd where Diavolina was giving away goodie bags full of leggings, we visited a few more boutiques and then ventured to Rodeo where we rode the ferris wheel countless times. From getting manicures at Chanel to the Beverly Center Fashion Show we were overwhelmed with excitement!

Summer Lovin' : Part 2

Now that summer has officially come to an end, and most schools are back in session all we can do is remember our favorite parts of our favorite season. Some of which include

1. spending the majority of my summer in London,Cambridge, and Paris

2. interning for one on my favorite designers, Cynthia Vincent

3. spending Sunday mornings attacking the farmers market and flea markets all over L.A.

4. spending countless hours by the pool eating homemade popsicles

5. hitting up the most spectacular boutiques in Europe

6. eating our weight in spicy tuna

Although a few of those things will continue into the fall (#3/#6) we truly will miss summer, but now its time to fall into autumn.

Urban L♡ve

As I ventured to Urban Outiffters, I picked out a few of my fave items to get me prepared for a new year. 1.) A great coffee mug full of jokes, 2.) Some great hair accessories needed to spruse up an outfit, 3.) A cozy blanket to keep me warm, and 4.) Some fun tights under those winter shorts...paired with boots of course!!!

Summer Lovin' : Part 1

After a long joyous summer of internships and travels, traveling back to L.A. for the start of school wasn't as awful as one would think. When we returned, we quickly met up together (Ava and I) to discuss upcoming posts, new posts mean new clothes which gave us a new reason to shop. As seen here, I (blonde) am wearing my favorite vintage Miu Miu wedges (as seen in the post "gifted, thrifted,borrowed"), a body bandeau which folds over to make a wonderful skirt, and a crop top from my favorite designer T by Alexander wang. This look consisted of some pretty dull pieces, so I spruced it up with vintage chunky necklaces. Ava decided to dress down and was photographed in a vintage military jacked, vintage ripped shorts, and Forever 21 black mary-janes ( similar to what is seen in post "Summer Daise"). As summer comes to a close we say goodbye to our favorite bikinis and begin to unpack our winter coats.

Summer Daise

As summer came to an end, I began to cling to some of my favorite summer clothes as my favorite season slipped away. This white high-waisted vintage skirt is able to be paired with any cropped top, choosing a T by Alexander Wang piece. Better yet, I matched this outfit with a great pair of mary jane pumps from no other than our fave store, Forever 21.

Army Green

Military jackets are being spotted all over! Once worn by war veterans, these jackets are gracing the bodies of celebrities such as Kim K, Rag and Bone, Balmain, and Marc Jacobs runway shows, and yours truly is even sporting one.

Best Buy

This $31 Brandy Melville top is perfect for any occasion, a grassy picnic or a sushi dinner at Izak-ya. The two of us loved this shirt so much we both insisted on buying it even if we would look like twins.
